Cold Steel Fixed Blade Hunting Kit ($99.99)

Most hunters commit the most forethought to pre-shot accessories when preparing for their hunt and then stepping foot into the field. After the shot is made, the animal is recovered, and the photo op is maximized, the real work begins. Most hunters are ill-prepared for what comes next, reaching into their pocket to retrieve a small lock-blade whose edge has been used, abused, and generally neglected. This is not where you want to be when the cleaning and butchering process begins as you prepare for the packout.

Thankfully, Cold Steel offers a set of fixed blades every hunter needs. It includes almost everything necessary for field dressing large and small game, all in one convenient package. The set has five sturdy 3.5 to 6-inch blades, each with a specific purpose and use, including a caper blade, a skinning blade with a gut hook, a general-purpose blade, a boning blade, and a bone saw. The razor-sharp blades are made from 4116 stainless steel and are ready for virtually any task. All of the knives and the saw come with a double-textured, ergonomically designed grip, and the set comes prepacked in a sturdy carrying case.
